Those are beautiful finishes, your speeds and feeds are superb! People don't give this trade enough credit, this is as much art as it is science.

I really wish that more people would watch videos like this so that they can see what goes into making the products that are used on a regular basis. But, then again, people like to whine and armchair quarterback and think that this is too much effort and that there ought to be better or faster ways to do things. I appreciate your letting us tag along with you as you work so that we can see the incredible things that you, and so many other skilled craftsmen do on a regular basis.

That pallet picture of all four. That's a lot of dialing in!!

Truly some master level 4-jaw indicating there! Nice work!

Watching this, thinking, what's going on here? I don't know this guy so definitely didn't train him. Yet he's doing everything as I would and to the same standard. At 70 yrs young, watching this makes me smile.

Fantastic work, that would have been a nightmare to dial in... looks awesome... great job

serious parts. Serious workmanship. Awesome job man.

Coming from a background of the drawing side, I never tired of watching machinists

Jewelry for an Amazon! What gorgeous work you do. Thank you for sharing this. Wishing you a restful and pleasant Sunday.

"Spot -on" is close enough for most of this work.Nicely done.

Great video mate, lovely bit of turning, love the whistling in the background, we machinist are a happy lot when it all goes to plan 😀 👍 thanks for sharing 👍

Dear God I hope you got a solid model for that, and some poor soul didn't have to hand code it from the drawing... Great video as always.

Buongiorno MAESTRO CHRIS. Un UOMO SENZA LIMITI. Complimenti per il tuo LAVORO. ARTISTA della MECCANICA 🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🤗🤗🤗🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️

Ув. Крис, восхитительная работа! Сложная, пространственная деталь, виработаная по требованиям и чертежа и естетики, кроме полезной является и очень красивой!

Chris! That's another excellent video and workmanship! Thanks for sharing.

5:53 - Surfaces look ground. 8:37 - Those soft jaws are veterans. 18:02 - That's a good day's work! (jokin')

I would consider it a nice/ extrem complicated pice, which combinats with a lot of fun and LEARING process. Would love to do something like that im my career once. Great work man always learning something from you on the way

That indicating reminds me of a part I used to cut on the boring mill. Flimsy 3 sided box with tight geometric tolerances milled on the "wings" 8 indicators, 4 under to monitor clamping distortion and 2 on the face of each wing to keep them from flaring out. Rough, release and reclamation. Took 5 minutes just to set the indicators up

That would be a scary place to be. All that mass spinning with so little to hold on to and an open machine. Thanks for sharing. Charles

Unbelievably good part there Chris As always

Prise de tête le réglage, bravo mr Chris

Scary stuff, incredible skills Chris 😅

Awesome So Awesome

You Guys did an excellent job. Hats off.

Cant even imagine the hours in one much less 4. Amazing

I follow you since long time and i think its the most beautiful parts you ve ever made

You are a very talented machinist. Thanks for video.

really good.. thanks your video

You sure do mighty purdyfull work.

Idealne wideo👍

Ja jak mierze żeby oprawka była w osi to dostaje Joba a co dopiero ty musiałeś tam przeżywać jak na dwa zegary ustawiales hehe :D Szacunek :D detal wygląda świetnie :) Pozdro mistrzu :D

Outstanding Work !

Very skilled. Much respect.

stunning!!!

Top notch work sir!

Awesome!!!

Quality work and programming.

Beautiful piece of work! If you gave me that print it would definitely be half an hour and a coffee spent thinking it through, and I'd be tempted to make a 1/4-scale trial piece out of aluminium just to be sure.

Very amazing work love it

Outstanding job.👍

Impressive. Some expensive parts :)

awesome job. well done

Perfect centering.

Beautiful! It would be nice to see the part during and after installation. Bob

Nice job, i like your job👍👍👍.

Amazing work 👏

Epic!

All that beautiful work, and it's placed on a raw pallet???

it is really well made 👍👍👍👍

Not trying to be a keyboard warrior here, but the (im assuming) high feed mill is feeding quite slow. Yeah, its a decent diameter but still it seems slow for a HF mill 🤔

Perfect 👍

GREAT 👍

Very nice video thanks for sharing. :o)

Chris that is SERIOUSLY IMPRESSIVE WORK!!! Very well done my friend!! How long did it take you to get those four pieces done start to finish??? By the way I would have loved to be a fly on the wall to hear you you swearing in Polish that would have taken me back to my machine shop days 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wery nice job...

베리 굿!!!

At first I thought: why are they using such a small cnc machine to make an automotive u-joint? Then I looked at the dimensions at the beginning of the video 😀. World's 🌎 largest truck 🚚 maybe?

patience game 😊

Hi Chris im a little late watching this video, nice work as always! I have a similar job to do in a couple of weeks do you remember what tooling you used to do the roughing?

Chris, love your work both on KZfaq and Reddit, just curious, was there a reason the counterbores were cut radially instead of axial? Keep up the great work, you do in my eyes some high level work!

👍

Some guys are not content making a cube with a lathe. They have to make crosses for the "views". I mean what is anybody going to do with a cross? Really nice work Chris. How many times did you have to measure and remeasure before you convinced yourself you were not manipulating the results in your favor?

What was the hardness/tensile strength of the material, and cutting parameters for the roughing? Looked like pretty tough stuff. Another job that Pete's Mazak would have been perfect for, I reckon.

Вполне сложная деталь для изготовления ,наверняка долго отлаживали перед пуском в серию.

噢耶

How does the machine "know" the position of each tool when you change them?

Very impressive. Love your videos.

is it for a rotorhead of a helicopter?

@Chris Maj What was your tolerance on critical dimensions, one thousands?

It's very interesting to see but I don't know what it's for

Great engineer! Where arr you from?

never seen soft jaws held on with duct tape but if it works great

Hi. did u attach the part into an angle plate for the 3rd op?

What's the cutting depth and speed in F please, during the first phase?

Eine großartige Arbeit an einem ziemlich anspruchsvollen Teil! - Sehr gut! 👍👍👍😎 PS.: Was kostet so ein Teil? Billig wird es nicht sein.

How old was the print? Can you imagine doing that part before CNC? The milling would have taken forever.

11:00 The ID and face ware still too rough to indicate on..?

Pretty cool machining, if you ask me... : ) Ale tak właściwie, co to za ustrojstwo, if I may ask?

What coolant does your shop use?

What kind of machine is this lathe? Its CNC but no turret.

Mistrzostwo Panie Krzysztofie :) Dokladnosc z jaka Pan ustawia "to cos" jest spektakularna :D Przepraszam za wscibskosc, ale czy moglby Pan powiedziec czy sam Pan planowal kolejnosc wykonywanych operacji? Bo w tym przypadku, jak dla mnie, to mistrzostwo logistyczne :) Pozdrawiam

10:00 why didnt you do an MDI program with spindle orientation? would have been a lot quicker...

What machine do U use? And tool ....

7:30 scared me

How many hours just in mill time?

maybe it's better to give the part to a control and measuring machine, otherwise a lot of time is spent on measurements?)

Мне показалось-?там допуск был плюс минус МИКРОН-?😮

У всех нормальных стран всё в миллиметрах, и только у американцев в дюймах.

We're not seeing a lot of what goes on her, right? You're running NC programs for each dimension, right? You don't have an NC program start to finish....can't do that with a manual toolpost. You gotta put up your tool...touch it off.....run a cut....measure.....put in an offset....and run to the finish dimension of that tool, right? You have to do that for every tool...roughing...finishing...right? Doing a production run for a part like this must take forever.

👍👍👍

😁👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
